Two small girls and a small boy Cyril were in a railway carriage. It wa
uncomfortably warm and all the young occupants were restless. Their aunt, who wa
also travelling along was unable to keep the kids occupied. The aunt started telling the
a story about a girl. This girl was chased by a mad bull. But the bull was driven away b
the people. The aunt went on to tell the three kids that the people saved the girl fron
the bull because she was a very good girl. It was her inherent goodness that mad
people save her. This story did not seem to interest the three of them. They wanted to
know if she wouldn't have been saved had she not been good. The aunt's answer did no
convince the kids.
A young bachelor, who was also travelling in the same carriage, was quietly observing a
this. He told the aunt that she was not a good storyteller. The aunt challenged the
bachelor to narrate a story that would thrill the kids and also be understood by them
The bachelor started a story about an exceptionally good girl, Bertha who was eaten up
by a wolf in the park of a prince. She was the only girl in that town to have won three
medals - all for her obedience, punctuality, and good behaviour. She used to wear al
these three large medals, which always clinked against each other as she walker
In the park, one day Bertha is chased​
